CHARLESTON (AP) — Local officials are asking
regulators to go slow when it comes to restarting the natural gas
pipeline that exploded in West Virginia earlier this month.
Last
week the federal Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration
said the company could plan to restart the 26.2-mile segment of pipe
after taking a number of steps including repairs and inspections.
The
state Public Service Commission also gave the gas company a long list
of demands that must be met before the pipe is restarted.
But
Kanawha County Commission President Kent Carper and Deputy Emergency
Services Director C.W. Sigman say safety has to be the No. 1 priority.
Both tell media outlets they'd like to see the entire pipeline dug up and inspected, instead of just a portion of it.
